Chevrolet had a magical year in 1957, and it’s easy to see why. This gorgeous ’57 Corvette convertible, stunning in Venetian Red with Polo White coves and soft top, showcases the charisma that launched the legend. With its virtually perfect proportions, single headlights, chrome “blade” bumpers, wide whitewalls with spinner wheel covers, and a shape that’s every inch a knockout, it’s no wonder that '57 Corvettes are favorites among enthusiasts. In any of five horsepower levels, the famed 283 V-8 was the engine for the Corvette that year, with the fuel injection topping the list. It was the first year that fuel injection became an option, making 1957 truly a milestone year. The transmission is a 3-speed manual, and just forward of the shifter is a Wonderbar Radio.
